Aaaaaaaannnd ... here we go. I MIGHT have rushed this through, but I still worked hard to keep it as much up to my exacting standards as possible ... I might be a little OCD that way.I still really enjoyed this character ... but MY GOD those tattoos are a PAIN IN THE ARSE to get consistent. I'm not even overly sure I pulled it off ... let's just call it more of an IMPRESSION than the finalised rule, shall we?
Photoshop has kinda fallen though a little, though ... turns out this machine just ain't powerful enough for Elements 7, and apparently you can't upgrade the processor on a laptop like you can on a desktop ... smells like bullshit to me, but I'm no tech-savvy so I gotta take their word for it. Still irritating. So now I gotta track down Elements 6 and hope THAT'LL run ...

You're using Elements now? Or at least TRYING to use it? Cool, glad you have it. Pity it's not working out.
You could always say the tattoos are always moving and flowing, kinda like Rorschach's mask. Not saying you should, but it's a quick write-off to inconsistency. As usual, good, well thought out character bio. It'll all be cooler when the webcomic itself develops.

I'd LOVE to be able to use Elements ... but sadly NO. Apparently this pissy little laptop with its ONE GIGABYTE PROCESSOR isn't powerful enough for 7, and even 6 might be a bit clunky. So I have to track down a copy of 5 ...
But I will. If it kills me ... Haha ... anyhoo ... the tats are, to be honest, still something of a work in progress, but this is the basic FEEL if nothing else. Besides, when I get a proper art-package I might be able to work something out with texture-mapping ...

Oooh, a texture mapping. I like that idea. I would have to try that someday. I don't have any reason to try that now, but, hey why not?

Why not indeed? I'm sure when you're doing your colouring work you can give it a go.

A favourite combination of mine! Yeah ... went for a darker, more sultry red this time, though. Suits her personality better ...

I like her. Tattoos and piercings, yay! I don't really care for my own freckles, but hers are cute. Well done.

Hey, freckly redheads are the cutest. She's got a freckly back too, but that's not really visible here ... 'specially with all them tats. Which are fun ... but a pain in the arse to draw ...

Well you can have the best plot in the world ... but if the characters are flat and 2-dimensional it all turns to shit ...
